Friend,

Connecticut has become the first state to make all prison phone calls free, alleviating one of the biggest emotional and financial burdens faced by incarcerated people and their families as they try to stay in contact. But why are prison phone calls so expensive, and how will this law help transform the future?

HAPPENING NOW: Join us for a Free Press Facebook Live discussion where we’ll answer all your questions about phone justice and what comes next in the fight to keep our friends and loved ones connected.

P.S. Predatory prison-phone companies charge astronomical rates that many families simply can’t afford. The Martha Wright-Reed Just and Reasonable Communications Act and the Martha Wright Prison Phone Justice Act would bring phone justice for millions of families. Urge Congress to support this legislation.
